Planet Saturn in conjuntion, square and opposition aka the hard aspects
Planet Saturn has such a bad reputation. Should not sugar-coat the fact that Saturn in a hard aspect might lead to frustration, painful experiences, disappointments, delays, etc. But hey, none of the planets wants to punish us, mind you.
If Saturn is being handled with care and proper consciousness it can manifest something great. With time and constant moderate effort, Saturn can absolutely work in your favor. The difficulty is that the test comes first, then the lesson… That is the reason it takes time to learn its lessons completely. In other words, to master the Saturn hard aspect.
What does Saturn want to teach you?
First and for all, it teaches acceptance, whatever it means in your chart and life. To be mature, to take responsibility, to make an effort, etc. You can read more about Saturn here.
We are all predisposed to make some mistakes wherever Saturn falls in the natal chart to master it. Diamond grows under pressure.
Hard-earned and hard-learned wisdom comes in that particular area of life wherever Saturn falls in the horoscope or whichever planet it touches. The ugliness of Saturn is that we might make the same mistakes a couple of times in that area of life Saturn touches. It’s called repetition. (We, humans, this is how we learn and mature…) It’s just up to us if we learn from our very first bad experience or from the 10th one only.
Keywords for Saturn in hard aspect are:
Consistent, moderate effort.
Consistent moderate effort for whatever it touches.
The hard aspects
The hard aspects are the conjunction, square, and opposition.
Saturn in conjunction starves and weakens the planet it is in conjunction with. That is the most difficult one. While the square and opposition slow down the planet, Saturn is aspecting, it creates difficulties, challenges, and tough lessons.
I.e., Saturn in square aspect with the 2nd house ruler: problems with self-worth, self-worth issues, slows down the money-making potential, native learns slowly and with repeated mistakes/efforts how to save money, how to make money consistently. However, once the native masters that aspect, it can lead to having a reliable source of income or make the savings long-lasting.
Saturn in challenging aspect with Venus and Merucry
In truth, that hard aspect manifests even better if Venus or Mercury is being aspected by Saturn. As Venus and Mercury and friends of Saturn, therefore, with time, they together can manifest handsomely and bring great results later in life.
As Saturn rules time, with time, even its hard aspects get better and more manageable. After the 2nd Saturn return, the karma is said to be paid off completely. However, you don’t have to wait that long to see some positive results. Saturn matures at the age of 35-36; something significant happens at that age in that area of life; whatever Saturn is touching with its aspects. Or the native is able to see the results of their hard work in that particular area of life.
Mercury, Venus, Mars, and Jupiter rule two signs, therefore two areas of life. Suppose at least one of them has a hard Saturn aspect. Two areas of life are difficult or challenging for the native. Though you are not doomed, the fact that you are here and looking for answers and solutions is a half success already, my dear!
What is Saturn in hard aspect with Moon?
The Saturn-Moon hard aspect is a tough combination. Or perhaps the most painful one, especially if the Moon is in a sign where it is quite weak.
The Moon’s main domains are emotions, inner narrative/dialogue, emotional security, how the native feels about himself/herself, and the mother figure of the native.
Well, Saturn freezes the emotions and makes them stuck. It is called e-motion because it should flow… And what happens when the doom and gloom planet makes the emotions stuck, and the native cannot let go of the bad feelings? Well, depression happens, as apathy, and lethargy.
Moon, the mother or the primary caretaker
As the Moon represents the mother or the primary caretaker in the natal chart, the mother might have been distant or even missing. Or the native did not establish an emotional connection with the mother because she was emotionally cold. Or the mother had a lot of duties and responsibilities (Saturn) and could not pay attention to the native.
Another possible scenario is that the native received only conditional love from the strict parents. As an alternative, one of the parents (most probably the mother) was hard on the native, and he/she didn’t receive enough affection.
In other words, the native’s emotional needs haven’t been met as a child.
And that is probably one of the more painful experiences for a child. Whatever happens during the early years of childhood shape and determine the inner narrative of the native later in life. As he or she matures, feels unworthy of unconditional love, affection, a happy marital life, etc.
In case the Moon is well placed- ie.: In Taurus or in air signs (not that emotional, more mental) than the native might not experience such extremes; rather, the mother was just too busy with worldly goals and duties. Another possible scenario is that the child had to work at home or had some responsibilities of sorts at a young age.
Moon is arguably the most important planet until the age of 7 personal planets.
How can you overcome this difficult aspect? Or how to make yourself emotionally more grounded and stable?
By moving the body, and doing sports. Moon rules the waters too, and up to 70% of the human body is water, so make your body move. As again, Saturn freezes the emotions.
By forgiving. Forgiveness towards the parent, or even towards an authority figure who was very strict and demanding on the native.
Creating emotionally supportive connections and relationships and consciously refusing emotionally unavailable partners (though it might be hard because emotional unavailability feels familiar, and that is the so-called comfort zone…). Equally important is learning how to express love.
Worldly and material achievements. Striving for material achievements makes the natives feel more confident and more secure.
Self-love and self-acceptance through soul searching help a lot to make the natives feel better about themselves and to have a healthier inner dialogue.
Sunlight. Sunlight is an excellent remedy for all kinds of Saturn aspects and eating a lot of citrus fruits.
Saturn as a career indicator
The hard taskmaster planet, aka Saturn, can be a career indicator too. For example, when Saturn is in a hard aspect with Moon can be an indicator for a Moon-related career, such as anything that is connected to real estate, nurturing, feeding, caretaking, sheltering, etc.
